What Makes a Roof Sustainable?

Waste Minimization

Waste reduction starts with durable products that stand the test of time. Sika Sarnafil membranes continue to perform after decades of use in a wide range of climates. When a roof must be replaced, our post-consumer recycling program recycles millions of square feet of used membrane yearly, reducing the burden on landfills.

Fire Performance

Our PVC roofing membranes boast the ability to self-extinguish and resist the spread of flame. In a particularly eye-opening experiment, a flame was applied to SBS Mod Bit, TPO, Sarnafil membrane and EPDM. What happens to the membranes when the flame is removed is nothing short of shocking.

Environmentally Preferable Products

The EPA defines "environmentally preferable" products and services according to health and environmental impact across a wide variety of factors, including raw material, acquisition, manufacturing, reuse and operation and maintenance.

Greenhouse Gas Reduction

Buildings account for nearly 50 percent of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, but Sika roofing products help the environment by reducing these greenhouse gases. Our reflective white roofs are proven to help lower urban air temperatures and improve overall air quality.
